Just new on blogging and loving it but you can often see me on facebook playing games there. It is my social life because I am a home buddy and a home based online assistant. It is also my way to lessen the stress of life.<br /><br />2. I am a late person, meaning I am not a morning person. I usually sleep late at night. I am more energetic at late afternoon &amp; onwards. I love to sleep until 10am. 12mn is my earliest time to sleep.<br /><br />3. My husband is a seaman so I am kinda single mom to my daughter because my husband is away most of every year but I am now adjusted to it because of my daughter (but still praying and dreaming for a complete family together).<br /><br />4. Beside facebook and sleeping, I also love to eat and still need to learn how to cook!<br /><br />5. I can consider myself as a young at heart person because I am easy to please, love playing online games, going to team parks, playing with my daughter, taking pictures, eating especially ice cream, see a movie or a show that kids loves and shopping.<br /><br />6. I hope I can have more time to blog, a one way of myself expression and I enjoy it.<br /><br />7. I don't wear make up and I don't know how too and I only wear clothes that I am comfortable with and that is more of a casual clothes and I love working at home because I can have more time for myself and my family, most especially to my daughter but I am still dreaming to have my own business.<br /><br />Congratulations! </div>http://worldofmamayjane.blogspot.com/2010/03/my-beautiful-blogger-award.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Mamay Jane)7Manila, Philippines14.5995124 120.984219514.5380484 120.9052555 14.660976400000001 121.0631835tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7429152502180417123.post-375025153300935233Fri, 29 Jan 2010 08:48:00 +00002012-05-04T02:35:36.327+08:00couplesmarriagemarriedmarried lifestoryAll About Marriage<div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; font-weight: bold; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 100%;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">I want to share this story I read from facebook which shared by an online friend.</span><br style="font-weight: normal;" /><span style="font-weight: normal;">This is really touching.</span><br style="font-weight: normal;" /><span style="font-weight: normal;">Married and getting into marriage should look at it.</span><br style="font-weight: normal;" /><span style="font-weight: normal;">This is a must share!</span></span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 100%;"><br /></span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">Fiona Zen Maye Wamar: To those who are married, .. Not married .. and soon to be married, I hope you will be touched with this story...</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">MARRIAGE</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">When I got home that night as my wife served dinner, I held her hand and said, I've got something to tell you. She sat down and ate quietly. Again I observed the hurt in her eyes.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">Suddenly I didn't know how to open my mouth. But I had to let her know what I was thinking. I want a divorce.. I raised the topic calmly.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">She didn't seem to be annoyed by my words, instead she asked me softly, why?</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">I avoided her question. This made her angry. She threw away the chopsticks and shouted at me, you are not a man! That night, we didn't talk to each other. She was weeping. I knew she wanted to find out what had happened to our marriage. But I could hardly give her a satisfactory answer; she had lost my heart to Dew. I didn't love her anymore. I just pitied her!</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">With a deep sense of guilt, I drafted a divorce agreement which stated that she could own our house, our car, and 30% stake of my company.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">She glanced at it and then tore it into pieces. The woman who had spent ten years of her life with me had become a stranger. I felt sorry for her wasted time, resources and energy but I could not take back what I had said for I loved Dew so dearly. Finally she cried loudly in front of me, which was what I had expected to see. To me her cry was actually a kind of release. The idea of divorce which had obsessed me for several weeks seemed to be firmer and clearer now.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">The next day, I came back home very late and found her writing something at the table. I didn't have supper but went straight to sleep and fell asleep very fast because I was tired after an eventful day with Dew.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">When I woke up, she was still there at the table writing. I just did not care so I turned over and was asleep again.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">In the morning she presented her divorce conditions: she didn't want anything from me, but needed a month's notice before the divorce.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">She requested that in that one month we both struggle to live as normal a life as possible. Her reasons were simple: our son had his exams in a month's time and she didn't want to disrupt him with our broken marriage.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">This was agreeable to me. But she had something more, she asked me to recall how I had carried her into out bridal room on our wedding day.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">She requested that everyday for the month's duration I carry her out of our bedroom to the front door ever morning.. I thought she was going crazy. Just to make our last days together bearable I accepted her odd request.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">I told Dew about my wife's divorce conditions.. . She laughed loudly and thought it was absurd. No matter what tricks she applies, she has to face the divorce, she said scornfully..</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">My wife and I hadn't had any body contact since my divorce intention was explicitly expressed. So when I carried her out on the first day, we both appeared clumsy. Our son clapped behind us, daddy is holding mummy in his arms. His words brought me a sense of pain. From the bedroom to the sitting room, then to the door, I walked over ten meters with her in my arms. She closed her eyes and said softly; don't tell our son about the divorce. I nodded, feeling somewhat upset. I put her down outside the door. She went to wait for the bus to work. I drove alone to the office.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">On the second day, both of us acted much more easily. She leaned on my chest. I could smell the fragrance of her blouse. I realized that I hadn't looked at this woman carefully for a long time.. I realized she was not young any more. There were fine wrinkles on her face, her hair was graying! Our marriage had taken its toll on her. For a minute I wondered what I had done to her.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">On the fourth day, when I lifted her up, I felt a sense of intimacy returning. This was the woman who had given ten years of her life to me.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">On the fifth and sixth day, I realized that our sense of intimacy was growing again. I didn't tell Dew about this. It became easier to carry her as the month slipped by. Perhaps the everyday workout made me stronger.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">She was choosing what to wear one morning. She tried on quite a few dresses but could not find a suitable one. Then she sighed, all my dresses have grown bigger. I suddenly realized that she had grown so thin, that was the reason why I could carry her more easily.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">Suddenly it hit me... she had buried so much pain and bitterness in her heart. Subconsciously I reached out and touched her head.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">Our son came in at the moment and said, Dad, it's time to carry mum out. To him, seeing his father carrying his mother out had become an essential part of his life. My wife gestured to our son to come closer and hugged him tightly. I turned my face away because I was afraid I might change my mind at this last minute. I then held her in my arms, walking from the bedroom, through the sitting room, to the hallway. Her hand surrounded my neck softly and naturally. I held her body tightly; it was just like our wedding day.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">But her much lighter weight made me sad. On the last day, when I held her in my arms I could hardly move a step. Our son had gone to school. I held her tightly and said, I hadn't noticed that our life lacked intimacy.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">I drove to office.... jumped out of the car swiftly without locking the door. I was afraid any delay would make me change my mind...I walked upstairs. Dew opened the door and I said to her, Sorry, Dew, I do not want the divorce anymore.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">She looked at me, astonished, and then touched my forehead.. Do you have a fever? She said. I moved her hand off my head. Sorry, Dew, I said, I won't divorce. My marriage life was boring probably because she and I didn't value the details of our lives, not because we didn't love each other any more. Now I realize that since I carried her into my home on our wedding day I am supposed to hold her until death do us apart.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">Dew seemed to suddenly wake up. She gave me a loud slap and then slammed the door and burst into tears. I walked downstairs and drove away.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">At the floral shop on the way, I ordered a bouquet of flowers for my wife. The salesgirl asked me what to write on the card. I smiled and wrote, I'll carry you out every morning until death do us apart.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">That evening I arrived home, flowers in my hands, a smile on my face, I run up stairs, only to find my wife in the bed - dead.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">The small details of your lives are what really matter in a relationship. It is not the mansion, the car, property, the money in the bank. These create an environment conducive for happiness but cannot give happiness in themselves. So find time to be your spouse's friend and do those little things for each other that build intimacy. Do have a real happy marriage!</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">If you don't share this, nothing will happen to you.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">If you do, you just might save a marriage.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">A CHRIST-CENTERED MARRIAGE IS A MARRIAGE THAT IS SURE TO LAST A LIFETIME.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;">Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh.

font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">We don't know how old she is.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">She's just a wandered cat at the back of our house sometime between September or October 2009 (Bagyong Undoy).</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">She is a sleepy, beautiful, sweet and pure white cat.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">Our family thinks she was already pregnant when we adopted her.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">She just delivered her 5 cute kittens last December 16.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">We called her Miya because of my daughter.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">My daughter keeps calling her Miya which she really means "meow" so we end up calling her Miya.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">It is a nice and unique name for her anyway.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">She just love to eat and sleep.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">But now that she's already a mother, she's often awake to breastfeed her kittens and clean them every now and then.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">She's a very clean cat.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">You will see her often licking her body, as well as her kittens. </span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">But that's the way cat cleans themselves.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">She is also a very quiet and behave cat and maybe because she was sleepy most of the time when she was pregnant.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">But now, you can still see her sleeping but if she's awake, she wanted always to eat.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">That is maybe because she's on breast feeding.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">It make us crazy because she's often hungry.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">She'll never leave you unless you make her eat AGAIN!</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">But the wonderful thing is seeing her taking good care of her kittens.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">We are sad because we can't adopt all of her kittens when they get a little older and when they can already&nbsp; able to eat solid foods.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">We really not a kind of family who wants to take good care of pets.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">We have a dog when I was young, that was because of my father.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">We don't like having a pet because of taking time feeding, cleaning and especially to clean up their wastes.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">But now we are used to it and we now loved having a pet because of Miya.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">But we can't have all her kittens.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">We only plan to keep Miya and one of her male kitten.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">We don't like female kitten because female get pregnant too often.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">Miya is our lucky charm and we loved her that's why we want to keep her.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">We will just look for persons who might like to keep her 4 kittens.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">Although it will be hard because in our country, cats are not really a must have pets here.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">There are so many cats here, you can see them everywhere.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">But I realized that cats are one of the good example of great mothers because they are really caring.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">They are like humans who really take good care of their youngs.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">They are very protective.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">They will not let you hold their youngs.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">They feed their young often and on time and they will leave it to do other things if the kittens are already sleeping and full.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">She also sleeps most of the time beside her kittens.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">She will also separate some of her kittens that are much bigger to the others.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">And keeps them clean all the time.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">Mother cats are really wonderful.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 85%;">One of the wonderful creature of God.</span></div><div style="color: black;
